A new year is upon us, and there’s no better time to start a new habit! You may be considering exercising more, drinking more water, reading more, or other new additions to your daily routine. Have you thought about adding new tears to your list? We’re not talking about eye drops, either.

Healthy Tear Production

Your eyes produce tears for lubrication and comfort. This production occurs in your tear ducts and produces 3 layers: the aqueous layer, the mucin layer, and the lipid layer. Together, these layers create a protective and hydrating layer called the tear film. Here’s how each layer helps.

• The aqueous layer is the water layer that keeps the eye moisturized.
• The mucin layer is mucous layer that keeps the tear film on the eye.
• The lipid layer is the fat layer that keeps the tear film from evaporating.

If any of these layers break down or are ineffective, the whole tear film will be off balanced, which can affect the quantity and quality of your tears.

What Can Low Amounts of or Low-Quality Tears Do to My Eyes?

The tear film lubricates your eyes and keeps them moisturized and comfortable. However, this lubrication does more than create comfort. The surface of the eye is a delicate area, and the tear film acts as a protective barrier, shielding the eyes from the environment. When your tear film isn’t producing enough tears or high-quality tears, you may experience:

• Eye dryness
• Itchiness
• Redness
• Burning
• Irritation
• Blurred vision
• Excessive watering

Furthermore, unbalanced tear film can lead to scratches on the corneal surface (the front of the eye). Think of it like the windshield wipers on a car. When the windshield is dry, the wipers drag across the surface with greater friction, leaving streaks and even making a high-pitched screech. The same happens with your eyelid except instead of streaks, it can leave scratches that can be permanent.
